Fedor vs Bader

[kenetics]

Fedor looked 60. Sad.

Ya, he looked like an old man literally.

 

[White Whale]

Bader would have destroyed Fedor in his prime.

 

[MMA Maine-iac]

Can't decide who looked worse, Fedor or Chuck.

 

[ChrisWhite]

Fedor couldnt hack it the new era...post 2010..

 

[kenetics]

Not one iota.

He's fucking 46.

Right. Makes me wonder if sherdoggers actually competed in sports. Especially near their 50s lol

 

[flektarn]

Bellator somehow making the UFC look charitable with how they setup a fighters retirement fight...

 

[ChrisWhite]

Can't decide who looked worse, Fedor or Chuck.

Yeah I thought about Chuck

 

[kenetics]

Can't decide who looked worse, Fedor or Chuck.

Chuck. I mean Tito and him were around same age.

 

[Bojka]

Really I think that was the first time Fedor did look truely shot rather than a declined glass canon.

Yeah he looked really old and slow. I was expecting the canon to still be there.

 

[panem-et-circenses]

Really? We all know Fedor was at in his career.

We do. I hate seeing so-called ‘noobs’ and ignorant fans who weren’t watching MMA during his prime call him a bum. But that was…brutally bad, to the point of being pathetic. It was on a big stage, too.

Maybe in 10 years from now Miocic will be fighting past his prime losing to some random guy in One FC

 

[ermac88]

Damn I was hoping Bader would just knock him to end it.

 

[Substance Abuse]

Right. Makes me wonder if sherdoggers actually competed in sports and sports. Especially near their 50s lol

Man, I blew my knee out playing sports in high school. That shit still hurts in my 30s in bad weather. To fight at 46!? Crazy.

 

[Xuh]

Damn you tim johnson. If you would have won the fight this would have never been made.

yeah but then Fedor would have an L to Tim Jonhson which is worse all things considered

this was expected.

 

[Hostile1]

Ryan Bader is 40 too

The better man won

Stupid take. Huge difference in fight years and there's a huge difference between 40 and 47 or so. I have nothing against Bader but he has nothing on Fedors career.

 

[moreorless87]

Yeah he looked really old and slow.

Pretty much, I spose you could argue he may still have had power but Bader was really catching him quite easily with a very significant difference in speed.

That felt like Nog/Struve to me in terms of performance and should definitely be a sign he should stick to his retirement.

 

[SuperBadAzz]

It just shows the technical gap between the 00s and now. It’s not as if Fedor’s aging is what created such a massive skill difference tonight. It’s kind of a good look for MMA as a whole because the talent of the competitors is clearly evolving.

 

[ermac88]

Maybe in 10 years from now Miocic will be fighting past his prime losing to some random guy in One FC

Probably not and Stipe and Fedor aren't that far apart in age.

Fedor has been losing since his early 30s

 

[Juice]

Most people here know I'm no Fedor fan but I still think prime Fedor would destroy prime Bader. Bader beat Fedor that was a shell of his former self.

 

[Schoolboy Q]

Awesome fight!
